Dreams become clearer

I watched the director's last film, "The Ace of Friends," in a movie theater in Taipei. The bluish tone on the big screen at the beginning made the rubber-faced actor suddenly real and old. In the process of washing away his memory, the flash-like lighting, gradually disappearing the dark depth of field, made me almost close my eyes. But love is so sad: even if you forget all the joys and sorrows, you will still repeat the same mistakes.
My "Dream in Love" movie theater was moved to Hong Kong. The man next door slept soundly, but the group of people in the back row laughed with relish. The director was destined to shine only in the small crowd. In the middle of the action, I suddenly had a dream. "My Own Private Idaho" has been specializing in the past, but The Science of Sleep is more and more focused on the dream. His view of love, once again involuntarily. But it is more tragic than the "ace of the enemy". When you are awake, there is nothing you can do, and love is only a castle in the air in a dream. The director sees through the men and women in the world, and dreams become more and more clear.

The Science of Sleep quotes

  • [first lines]

    Stephane: ¡Un, dos, tres, cuatro!

    [Stéphane plays the drums, then the piano, then moves the cameras. "Stéphane TV"]

    Stephane: Hi, and welcome back to another episode of "Télévision Educative". Tonight, I'll show you how dreams are prepared. People think it's a very simple and easy process but it's a bit more complicated than that. As you can see, a very delicate combination of complex ingredients is the key. First, we put in some random thoughts. And then, we add a little bit of reminiscences of the day... mixed with some memories from the past.

    [adds two bunchs of pasta]

    Stephane: That's for two people. Love, friendships, relationships... and all those "ships", together with songs you heard during the day, things you saw, and also, uh... personal... Okay, I think it's one.

    [Red smoke comes out of the pot]

    Stephane: There it goes. Yes! Yes.

    [coughs]

    Stephane: Okay, we have to run.

  • Stéphanie: How's is your hand?

    Stephane: It started to smell like a foot.

    Stéphanie: Its a good sign.
